MDY Siyum Kesubos Manchester

Ellie [Music] I know there's a basketball theme that goes on at mdy and I have to say that at the moment this feels like a a kindergarten person giving advice to Michael Jordan um so I'm guy it's it's absolutely fantastic to be here uh last week revelli told one of the in-person participants to bury their English name I think he said Intel Stone so you can cut me off around if you want to [Applause] invited me to talk a little bit about my journey but I aspire to be used I I probably stand there aspiring to be as strong as the least from person in this room and my story I'm a little embarrassed I'm a little embarrassed uh or as a rebellion say uh I don't want to bring this booster upon myself I mean my last official day of Jewish Education was when I left the mainstream Jewish school at 16. uh and uh I'm I'm embarrassed to say that some years I wasn't even a two-day a year yet no short at all in a year but everything was going great in my life and I didn't think I needed hakodes varico on my side uh until my eldest daughter was admitted to hospital with stomach problems and for six months me and my wife are slept by her side while she was on the emergency surgery list um and yeah rev desler says that our heart needs piercing to take up inspiration and move on to the next step of our growth and he brings the villner Gordon said that the way to do that was to pierce her Tim Tom halev with strong emotional upheaval in my case it was a zets with a low level one night during circus a rabbi's son was admitted to our war he saw my surname was Levine and the next morning he bought a little love for my family to Shake in Hospital Manchester Children's Hospital is not a pleasant place my bed mate was wearing a security tag around her leg she was absolutely lovely but it was scary um and you know we always talk about to notice the signs and Hashem sent me a sign that day that he'd look after us and my nine-year-old daughter went to surgery for a life-changing operation and came out of surgery with a miraculous result [Applause] I can't explain why Israel wins Wars and the doctors can't explain why You'd Survive things that no one else should uh so uh she's great uh and during this time my wife was befriended by an amazing Revenant couple uh it was uh Samuel Angela Ross Rabbi Ross has come tonight [Applause] and they they took us in they looked after us uh until one night they invited us for Shabbos dinner and I had I know sometimes the words you need a bit of translation my best friend's Israeli and he called it I had a tantra that was uh that was uh yeah a three-year-old would have been proud of the Tantrum why if I want to go to a rabbi's house for dinner come on I don't want to go but I went and I walked into Rabbi Ross's house and he showed me his bookshelf and ask them so what's your favorite book then he said no one's ever asked me that and we've been great friends ever since so much so he invited me to a seed a young family's weekend and I have to say that was the first time I've ever turned my phone off for Shabbos that was [Applause] 24th of November 2018 and I'm proud to say that I've turned my phone off every Shabba since [Applause] then the car then the TV and now we we keep her pretty show mashaba's House so red belly I know this is your event but I have to thank the man that really started the change of my life Rabbi Ross um [Applause] immediately went for the death of my learning to two weeks ago when my daughter was Bat Mitzvah and if it wouldn't have been for the death of my learning we would have had a 12 year old's birthday party in a nightclub but what was funny is that uh bat mixer was held in Shore and I laughed because I didn't want to go to the rabbi rabbi's house for shove his dinner and then our Bat Mitzvah we had four rabbis that came as yes [Applause] I've never picked up a safer before I started the duff I could only read basic Hebrew uh I think you you would have known me in school because when they sang at him Samira I just had to hum the reply because I maybe wasn't good enough to actually sing along and I was like who's the Apple man it was me um but I wanted to learn the dance and I started with the chevor program now this is my first big Jewish event like this and as all I can do is speak my truth but I hear some people talking about the time it takes and the difficulty it takes it took me 27 weeks to learn a week and it took me 122 weeks to learn the about mosque that's two years and 10 weeks to learn your Vamos a daffa week [Applause] and I'm the guy that parked around the corner from the rabbi on Shabbos so as I didn't embarrass myself if I can do this anyone can do it and then I met red belly and uh it's been life-changing it really has um at 10 o'clock every night you can hear in our house good morning rambasai I can't do it justice and rabbeli my wife thinks you've got the loudest voice in the world for what she doesn't know is that at 9 59 I turned the TV up loud so that the sound of your voice Rings through my house and that everyone in the house knows that this is a house where we learn and live tour of values [Applause] foreign [Applause] because that is the day or breaking question and while I might not have had to start that I am now proud of I'm doing absolutely everything I can do to make sure that my daughters do I can't stand up there and say that I've been with you from the start I joined the consumers and I can't say I understand your jokes no no not just from the jokes but you know the Hebrew is it's quite a lot to uh take in but um but every uh every I know that from learning from you not only do I benefit but my wife benefits and my kids benefit and when I'm having a bad day I open my gemara and know that Hashem loves me and when I'm having a great day and when I think I'm top of the world I remember to thank Hashem so thank you revelli for making Torah and just approachable for a true and Pirates and I look forward to finishing just together [Applause] thank you [Music] and the world wants to know why it started in Manchester I'm sure you'll all agree with me that actually maybe yours
